we believe this is where jim crow was still hiding out. and i hope that one day you'll take this on to expose the tentacles of racism and discrimination that have permeated our society. my question is this: there's sometimes pain when we delve into the story, and what haunts me is some of the photos and the images of that period when we would see black men hanging, being lynched, but there would be a picnic, there would be a festival with children. who were those people? who were those children who are now adults? what fear do they have in going into that history? that's deep, man. >> uh-huh. >> how do we deal with that? that trauma that we have all experienced as a people. >> get through that trauma to get to the healing side? >> well, that's a tough, that's a tough question, but you open up one part -- i can't tell you how many people i interviewed in mississippi going back 30 years or more now, how many black folks said that they were raised being told in their household do not talk about emmett till. why? it's dangerous, and number two

woodrow wilson did introduce jim crow to this city. says sam chang segregation, even the community. this goes back to the personal side, someone who grew up in a deep southern society, during the war, prewar. this is what he understood. all that being said, he was a racist, his writings, his thinking, no matter what time or context, it is racist plot. that being said, i don't think he was of virulent racist. i don't think that he hated african-americans. he only had hatred for a few individuals. israel hearing about regulation, and l.a. enough for you to decide whether you agree not. all the evidence pro and con. but he really did believe the country simply was not ready. and he said more than once, it will take a generation to before this country can deal with that problem which would put use some more in the mid-1950s which may be exactly on woodrow wilson's calendar. that being said, if you slow the process because he segregative the city, because desegregated government offices, probably a good bet, and i would say he simply did not want a revolution that did occur in the 50's a

. >> host: jim in maryland, you are on booktv on c-span2 with ben shapiro. >> appreciate it. the thing i wish you would address is the hypocrisy icy with types like obama, for instance, admitted drug use and so on and they maintain policies that are locking people up. i see this from all the higher ups, clinton was involved in a lot of this stuff. in the book no one left alive, can't think of the scene, that he was basically a rapist and so on. what it seems to me is these higher ups get away with crimes that if normal person did would be locked right up and yet they are not held accountable. it goes all the way back to vietnam and everything else. johnson was never held accountable to the gulf of tonkin incident. the other thing, if you ever heard of a book called reading obama, harvard professor, this is a very positive spin. i have read it but the reviews claimed that. >> host: thanks for calling in. >> guest: i don't know that book. as far as the other question about various politicians getting away with crimes that they themselves condemned i am never a big fan of the hy

david, former colleague of jim my question tracks along the point that jim raised, this is hardly an and stuart. as part of the fundamental basis of what you're talking about, which is planning from the beginning, looking for to get in, get out quickly, i would hold actually that that's the wrong approach. once you start thinking you have to plan to lead from the beginning and launcher focuses on reducing, then rather than focusing on the exit so quickly and exit at the income you're missing the opportunity to get things right. and i would say that over and over again we have made the mistakes of planning to leave too soon, having to short term of a vision over and over. i would wonder if that is played into your thinking at all? >> i'm retired from both the u.s. government and cna now. since egypt is going to settle its own thing with some diplomatic help bias and syria is hopeless, the next country is yemen. and some occasion in the past on separate occasions i asked egyptian generals to tell me about their experience. they wouldn't talk to me. should we go into yemen?
